Everything You Need To Know About Vitamins And Minerals – Find Resources

You hear a lot about vitamins and minerals, but do you have any idea if you are getting what you need? You probably are, for the most part. There are times when we don’t however, and this direct us to a very interesting theory. My mom offered me a book she had read a while back, and it stated that those who don’t get the right vitamins and minerals each day might get sick easier and also might walk around with unusual cravings.

I read the book and it got me thinking about a teacher I had in seventh grade. This person was your classic teacher, even if he was not very animated. Many times he would eat the chalk he had in the classroom. Though we thought it was funny at the time, I never thought there was a reason why he did it. May be it had something to do with the amount of vitamins and minerals in his diet? I am not sure, but this book told me it was. It’s a fascinating theory. But would it makes us eat chalk if our body craves for vitamins and minerals it is not getting?

So this might explain why you crave certain foods. That’s certainly not as awful as eat chalk, but this could elucidate odd cravings, especially during pregnancy. Pregnant women require more vitamins and minerals than anyone else, and they must to be sure they get them. Do they have to ask for Italian dressing and hotdogs in the middle of the night if they aren’t getting the vitamins and minerals for themselves as well as what they need for their growing baby? I don’t know.

I {really don’t know if a lack of important vitamins and minerals might explain cravings, even though the man who wrote the book made some excellent points. What I do believe is that if you are dieting you deal with cravings every day, and perhaps if you make sure your amount of vitamins and minerals is what it should be might just stop a few of those crazy urges that make you over eat. Even though it’s just a theory, maybe if you make sure you take a daily vitamin it might help you to stop your cravings just in case it works. If you take up a diet plan that ensures you get the right foods each and every day, perhaps that, along with the vitamins, might give you the head start you need to keep on track. Just don’t eat chalk, ok?
